Natasha
I love this cottage. Quirky! Perfect for my new dog. She loves the freedom of the garden. Two minutes from the beach. Thoughtful welcome package which includes Prosecco. Now that's a nice touch. Even got a birthday card. It takes time getting used to the funny sloping floor upstairs. I love it. I think I may have done my 4th or 5th visit. I've lost count. Everything close by like the village, cafes, The Victory Pub, The Potatoe Shack, gift shops, Naze Tower and seal watching available. The beautiful backwater Naze walks are stunning. I love this place so much I got married here and the Little Thatch is my 'honeymoon cottage'.
